See now if she had a HUMAN driver, this would have turned out alot differently. But no, we gotta remove another career so Corporations can make more money...

Human drivers are well known for never ever harassing women.

Pshh, you need a good driver with a gun, then I’m sure everything will be resolved peacefully

Driving isn't a job we should be protecting IMO. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying self-driving cars are necessarily the answer either, just that if I had to choose, I'd pick self-driving cars every time over human drivers, provided they're on well-defined routes with ample testing (like in a city).

We should be solving personal transportation another way, such as:

  • mass transit
  • segregated bicycle/pedestrian paths
  • higher density so popular destinations are closer together
